Carla's plant was 10 2/3 inches tall. Yolanda's was 8 3/4 inches tall. How much taller was Carla's plant than Yolanda's?

1 answer:

6 0

It is easy to subtract fractions by converting them into decimals first. To convert is numerator divided by denominator. So, 10 1/2 would be 10.5 and 8 3/4 would be 8. 75. Now, you can subtract them. Start at the hundredth place so subtract 5 from 0 ( because 10.5 can also be 10.50) so it would be 5. Next, 5 -7 ( so you borrow 1 from 10 so 5 would become 15 and 10 is 9) is 7. Last, subtract your whole number. 9 - 8 = 1. So, your answer would be 1. 75. To convert it to fraction, you need to write it as 1 75/ 100 and simplify it which is 1 3/4. So, Carla's plant is 1 3/4 inches taller than Yolanda's plant Hope it helps!!!!

Answer:

First drawing - answer is: D: DG, FG and DE

Second drawing - answer is: π (pi)

Third drawing - answer is: 70° ( If you mean on measure of central angle which is corresponing to the arc CB)

Fourth drawing - answer is: y=55° ( If you mean that the value of angle ∠AOB=70° )

Step-by-step explanation:

For the second drawing

arc AB = (r · π / 180) · α = (3 · π/180) · 60 = (180 · π) / 180 = π

For the third drawing

∠CAB is peripheral angle of the central angle ∠CFB.

∠CFB= 2·∠CAB= 2· 35° = 70°

Good luck!!!

Answer:

7.28 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the Pythagorean theorem, $a^{2} + b^{2} = c^{2}$ , we get:

$2^{2}+7^{2}=c^{2}\\4+49=c^{2}\\53=c^2\\\sqrt{53}=c\\c=\sqrt{53}$

$\sqrt{53}$ ≈ 7.28
